Ranan Lachman, Founder of the Sharing Economy Forum, is passionate about teaching the benefits of the sharing economy. The Sharing Economy Forum (www.sharingeconomyforum.org) aims to be the single voice for the industry and set gold standards for sharing economy companies.

By using these peer-to-peer services, we can depend on each other and improve our society. The Sharing Economy Forum is absolutely not the only place Ranan Lachman gives back. He is also the Founder and CEO of Pley.com, an online toy rental service that helps families and their children get involved in the movement. Pley allows families to share toys across the US. In addition, in partnership with Generation Rescue, Pley will sanitize and clean LEGO toys, then donate them to special centers treating children with autism to learn and develop important skills through LEGO therapy.

Ranan believes that everyone has a purpose in this life and that it doesn’t need to affect the whole world. If you focus on your passions and what is right in front of you, you can make a substantial and positive impact on society or the environment.
